Expression microarray analysis of RHOXF1 and RHOXF2 transfected HEK293 cells

ABSTRACT: The X-linked reproductive homeobox (RHOX) gene cluster encodes transcription factors displaying preferential expression in reproductive tissues. They have important roles in human male fertility based on phenotypic defects of Rhox-mutant mice and the finding that aberrant RHOX promoter methylation is strongly associated with abnormal human sperm parameters. The aim of this study was to analyze the molecular mechanism of RHOX action in humans. Using genome-wide analysis, we investigated the identity of genes regulated by the known human RHOX transcription factors: RHOXF1 and RHOXF2/2B. HEK293 cells were transiently transfected with either RHOX expression (RHOXF1; RHOXF2) or an empty control vector. Afterwards, differently expressed genes were identified by microarray analysis after 24h and 48h of transfection. Thereby we could identify genes that are differently regulated in response to RHOX overexpression.

Total RNA was isolated from RHOX (RHOXF1; RHOXF2) and control transfected HEK293 cells after 24h and 48h of transfection. Affymetrix GeneChip Human Exon 1.0 ST arrays were used to evaluate changes in mRNA expression in RHOX transfected samples compared to control transfected samples (analyzed in biological triplicates). Data were processed and analyzed using Affymetrix Gene Expression Console and Affymetrix transcriptome analysis console.

Transcription profiling of mouse 15P-1 Sertoli cell clones stably transfected with mouse Rhox5-expression vector reveals androgen-Induced Rhox homeobox genes modulate the expression of AR-regulated genes

Project description:Rhox5, the founding member of the reproductive homeobox on the X chromosome (Rhox) gene cluster, encodes a homeodomain-containing transcription factor that is selectively expressed in Sertoli cells, where it promotes the survival of male germ cells. To identify Rhox5-regulated genes, we generated 15P-1 Sertoli cell clones expressing physiological levels of Rhox5 from a stably transfected expression vector. Microarray analysis identified many genes altered in expression in response to Rhox5, including those encoding proteins controlling cell cycle regulation, apoptosis, metabolism, and cell-cell interactions. Fifteen of these Rhox5-regulated genes were chosen for further analysis. Analysis of Rhox5-null male mice indicated that at least 9 of these are Rhox5-regulated in the testes in vivo. Many of them have distinct postnatal expression patterns and are regulated by Rhox5 at different postnatal time points. Most of them are expressed in Sertoli cells, indicating that they are candidates to be directly regulated by Rhox5. Transfection analysis with expression vectors encoding different mouse and human Rhox family members revealed that the regulatory response of a subset of these Rhox5-regulated genes is both conserved and redundant. Given that Rhox5 depends on AR for expression in Sertoli cells, we examined whether some Rhox5-regulated genes are also regulated by androgen receptor (AR). We provide several lines of evidence that this is the case, leading us to propose that RHOX5 serves as a key intermediate transcription factor that directs some of the actions of AR in the testes. Experiment Overall Design: Four 15P-1 Sertoli cell clones stably transfected with mouse Rhox5-expression vector were used for microarray analysis. Among them, two clones (6 and 24) expressed highest level of Rhox5 mRNA, and other two clones (14 and 16) expressed the lowest level of Rhox5 mRNA.

The Rhox gene cluster suppresses germline LINE1 transposition

Project description:Transposable elements (TEs) are mobile sequences that engender widespread mutations and thus are a major hazard that must be silenced. The most abundant active class of TEs in mammalian genomes is long interspersed element class 1 (LINE1). Here, we report that LINE1 transposition is suppressed in the male germline by transcription factors encoded by a rapidly evolving X-linked homeobox gene cluster. LINE1 transposition is repressed by many members of this RHOX transcription factor family, including those with different patterns of expression during spermatogenesis. One family member—RHOX10—suppresses LINE1 transposition during fetal development in vivo when the germline would otherwise be susceptible to LINE1 activation because of epigenetic reprogramming. We provide evidence that RHOX10 suppresses LINE transposition by inducing Piwil2, which encodes a key component in the Piwi-interacting (pi) RNA pathway that protects against TEs. The ability of RHOX transcription factors to suppress LINE1 is conserved in humans, but is lost in RHOXF2 mutants from several infertile human patients, raising the possibility that loss of RHOXF2 causes human infertility by allowing uncontrolled LINE1 expression in the germline. Together, our results support a model in which the Rhox gene cluster is in an evolutionary arms race with TEs, resulting in expansion of the Rhox gene cluster to suppress TEs in different biological contexts.

Extracellular ATP causes ROCK I-dependent bleb formation in P2X7-transfected HEK293 cells.

Project description:The P2X7 ATP receptor mediates the cytotoxic effect of extracellular ATP. P2X7-dependent cell death is heralded by dramatic plasma membrane bleb formation. Membrane blebbing is a complex phenomenon involving as yet poorly characterized intracellular pathways. We have investigated the effect of extracellular ATP on HEK293 cells transfected with the cytotoxic/pore-forming P2X7 receptor. Addition of ATP to P2X7-transfected, but not to wt P2X7-less, HEK293 cells caused massive membrane blebbing within 1-2 min. UTP, a nucleotide incapable of activating P2X7, had no early effects on cell shape and bleb formation. Bleb formation triggered by ATP was reversible and required extracellular Ca2+ and an intact cytoskeleton. Furthermore, it was completely prevented by preincubation with the P2X blocker oxidized ATP. It was recently observed that the ROCK protein is a key determinant of bleb formation. Preincubation of HEK293-P2X7 cells with the ROCK blocker Y-27632 completely prevented P2X7-dependent blebbing. Although ATP triggered cleavage of the ROCK I isoform in P2X7-transfected HEK293 cells, the wide range caspase inhibitor z-VAD-fluoromethylketone had no effect. These observations suggest that P2X7-dependent plasma membrane blebbing depends on the activation of the serine/threonine kinase ROCK I.

Calcium Imaging of GPCR Activation Using Arrays of Reverse Transfected HEK293 Cells in a Microfluidic System.

Project description:Reverse-transfected cell arrays in microfluidic systems have great potential to perform large-scale parallel screening of G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) activation. Here, we report the preparation of a novel platform using reverse transfection of HEK293 cells, imaging by stereo-fluorescence microscopy in a flowcell format, real-time monitoring of cytosolic calcium ion fluctuations using the fluorescent protein Cameleon and analysis of GPCR responses to sequential sample exposures. To determine the relationship between DNA concentration and gene expression, we analyzed cell arrays made with variable concentrations of plasmid DNA encoding fluorescent proteins and the Neurokinin 1 (NK1) receptor. We observed pronounced effects on gene expression of both the specific and total DNA concentration. Reverse transfected spots with NK1 plasmid DNA at 1% of total DNA still resulted in detectable NK1 activation when exposed to its ligand. By varying the GPCR DNA concentration in reverse transfection, the sensitivity and robustness of the receptor response for sequential sample exposures was optimized. An injection series is shown for an array containing the NK1 receptor, bitter receptor TAS2R8 and controls. Both receptors were exposed 14 times to alternating samples of two ligands. Specific responses remained reproducible. This platform introduces new opportunities for high throughput screening of GPCR libraries.

Isolation of human TRPA1 channel from transfected HEK293 cells and identification of alkylation sites after sulfur mustard exposure.

Project description:Transient receptor potential (TRP) channels are important in the sensing of pain and other stimuli. They may be triggered by electrophilic agonists after covalent modification of certain cysteine residues. Sulfur mustard (SM) is a banned chemical warfare agent and its reactivity is also based on an electrophilic intermediate. The activation of human TRP ankyrin 1 (hTRPA1) channels by SM has already been documented, however, the mechanism of action is not known in detail. The aim of this work was to purify hTRPA1 channel from overexpressing HEK293 cells for identification of SM-induced alkylation sites. To confirm hTRPA1 isolation, Western blot analysis was performed showing a characteristic double band at 125 kDa. Immunomagnetic separation was carried out using either an anti-His-tag or an anti-hTRPA1 antibody to isolate hTRPA1 from lysates of transfected HEK293 cells. The identity of the channel was confirmed by micro liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization high-resolution tandem-mass spectrometry. Following SM exposure, hTRPA1 channel modifications were found at Cys462 and Cys665, as well as at Asp339 and Glu341 described herein for the first time. Since Cys665 is a well-known target of hTRPA1 agonists and is involved in hTRPA1 activation, SM-induced modifications of cysteine, as well as aspartic acid and glutamic acid residues may play a role in hTRPA1 activation. Considering hTRPA1 as a target of other SM-related chemical warfare agents, analogous adducts may be predicted and identified applying the analytical approach described herein.
